I took great delight in marking the score for my organ arrangement "Pomposo ma poco scherzando", as this music is wonderfully tongue-in-cheek!
The frequent variations in configuration make this piece a great vehicle for using different tone colours of the organ. We start off with some light glitter, then a trumpet-tune section, then some grittier glitter, then the delicate piccolo, and then through a variety of sounds including the magnificent Pedal Ophicleide growling away in the bass. The final page sees the inevitable arrival of Full Organ. Well, it would be rude not to.
The music is from the film "The Draughtsman's Contract".
Played by Paul Broadhurst on the historic "Father" Henry Willis organ of Christ Church, Birkenhead, England.
Recorded 20 November 2021
